\n

The Yankees have reinstated slugger Giancarlo Stanton<\/strong> from the 10-day injured list, for the team<\/a>. He is back on the active roster batting cleanup as the designated hitter.<\/p>\n

New York weathered the loss of Stanton just fine, having gone 7-2 in his absence. Stanton spent the minimum amount of time away, missing only nine games. Prior to his placement on the injured list, Stanton was hitting .285 \/ .339 \/ .523 in 168 plate appearances with 11 long balls.<\/p>\n

The corresponding roster moves were made yesterday after last night’s ballgame. Miguel Andujar<\/strong> was optioned to Triple-A. Andujar appeared in 12 games, slashing .268 \/ .279 \/ .317 through 43 plate appearances while mostly playing left field.<\/p>\n

Tim Locastro<\/strong> also completed his rehab assignment. He was reinstated and optioned to Triple-A as well. The speedy Locastro is largely a reserve option for the Yankees. His ability of him to play all three outfield positions provides some value as a pinch-runner and defensive replacement.<\/p>\n
